• A 20,000-piece collection of vintage toys, games, children's books and clothes, gathered by collector Maria Argyriadi
• In the Kouloura Mansion, a Benaki Museum branch by the sea rather than in central Athens, so plan it as its own outing
• Close to the T7 tram, with the Trocadero and Parko Flisvou stops a few minutes' walk away

Part of the Benaki Museum, the Toy Museum is housed in the seaside Kouloura Mansion. It is built on Maria Argyriadi's collection of 20,000 vintage toys, games, children's books and clothes, one of the largest in Europe. Kids get to see what children played with and wore generations ago, and compare it with their own toy box.
